Lady Gaga Claims Celibacy!

And she's hoping the rest of you will too. Is abstinence the new cool? Here's her take on the matter...

According to MTV.com, Lady Gaga had this to say while in England promoting MAC's latest Viva Glam campaign in support of global HIV and AIDS projects:

"I can't believe I'm saying this -- don't have
sex. I'm single right now and I've chosen to be single because I don't have the time to get to know anybody, so it's OK not to have sex, it's OK to get to know people. I'm celibate, celibacy's fine."

She also said she wants to enjoy celibacy with her fans, and then discussed the importance of being true to yourself and not falling into society's pressures:

"I remember the cool girls when I was growing up. Everyone started to have sex. But it's not really cool anymore to have sex all the time. It's cooler to be strong and independent."
